WHILST the sun is shining and Summer is here, Merlin Theatre Productions (MTP) already have their minds on Winter, gearing up for upcoming auditions for their Christmas Musical, Elf.
MTP are looking for local actors, singers, and dancers to show off their talents on Sunday 2nd July. Auditions will take place from 10am at Tri.Art Studio’s in Frome.
Elf the musical tells the story of Buddy, a young orphan, who mistakenly crawls into Santa’s bag of gifts and is transported to the North Pole. The would-be elf is raised, unaware that he is actually a human, until his enormous size and poor toy-making abilities cause him to face the truth.
With Santa’s permission, Buddy embarks on a journey to New York City to find his birth father and discover his true identity. Faced with the harsh reality that his father is on the naughty list, and his stepbrother doesn’t even believe in Santa, Buddy is determined to win over his new family and help New York remember the true meaning of Christmas.
Auditions will be a combination of pre audition material and workshop on the day.
